The Acrylics Book: Materials and Techniques for Today's Artist

This encyclopedic reference on the most versatile of all painting mediums is a great tool to help beginning and seasoned artists produce their best work in acrylics. Highly flexible, acrylic paint can mimic the appearance of oils, tempera, and watercolors in unique ways, with each method pictured in a separate step-by-step demonstration. The author also examines the use of acrylics with airbrush, sculptural, and printing techniques--including three-dimensional relief painting and collagraphy printing methods--and how these creative processes can be integrated in one composition with ink, pencil, charchoal, and pastel. A survey of the latest acrylic materials covers the best paint brands, painting mediums, supports, varnishes, brushes, knives, and palettes. Paperback, 352 color illustrations, 176 pages. Watson-Guptill. ISBN 823000621
